Core the apples and slice thickly. Place half the slices in a bowl of water with the lemon juice and refrigerate for use as a garnish. Add the remaining slices to the pan and gently fry for 5 minutes until softened. Add the cider and de-glaze the pan, scraping any cooked juices off the bottom. Return the pheasant to the pan and pour the Calvados or brandy over them.

Drain the prepared apple slices and quickly saute in the remaining butter and oil in a shallow pan until lightly caramelised.
